Jennylyn Mercado "Rosario" - Movie Trailer

Checkout the official trailer for Albert Martinez-directed film "Rosario" starring Jennylyn Mercado and Dennis Trillo. This period film is Cinemabuhay and Studio 5's entry to the 2010 Metro Manila Film Festival.

The film tells the saga of Rosario, a young and liberated Filipina in the 1920s who has just arrived from New York, and is spending her vacation in their hacienda.

There, she meets and falls in love with Vicente, an older man who manages the tobacco plantation owned by Rosario's family. When Rosario's father finds out about his daughter's scandalous affair, he sends Rosario to a convent.

She escapes, and elopes with Vicente to Manila where they raise a family. But Rosario's life of married bliss slowly crumbles when Vicente becomes ill with tuberculosis, and she is lured to committing adultery. Temptation and scandal still hound Rosario as she continues to defy the moral restrictions of her time.

Based on a true story and set in one of the most colorful periods in Philippine history, ROSARIO is destined to be a modern masterpiece in Philippine filmmaking. It is a monumental yet intimate portraitof a woman's emancipation and the sometimes painful consequencesof following one's desires.

Other cast includes Sid Lucero, Yul Servo, Isabel Oli, Jerould Aceron, Philip Salvador, Eula Valdez, Rita Avila, Ricky Davao, and Dolphy.

Release date: Dec. 25, 2010

ABS-CBN's controversial actress Shaina Magdayao is facing a dilemma as she is torn between two brothers in her upcoming afternoon series for Precious Hearts Romances presents "Alyna".

Alyna is a woman who grew up feeling unloved until she meets Rex. He was fun, charismatic and immediately swept Alyna off her feet. When she thought she finally found love in the arms of Rex, he suddenly disappears. Alyna is left alone, heartbroken and carrying his child.

In the search for Rex, Alyna crosses paths with Dominic—a sad, serious and cold man. But as the days progress, the fire in Alyna’s heart blazes anew as she got to know the endearing qualities of Dominic. He could be the man Alyna was looking for all along.

But Rex returns, promising to continue the love story he started weaving with Alyna. Who will Alyna choose---the man she loved first? Or the man who promises to love her forever?

Other cast includes Sid Lucero, Jason Abalos, Kaye Abad, JM De Guzman, Charee Pineda, Paul Jake Castillo, Beauty Gonzalez, Jose Sarasola, Jao Mapa, Carlos Morales, and Francine Prieto.
